Detailed Walkthrough

The Third part of this quest, is beyond any doubt the longest part. Mainly because it involves walking around Ancaria's equator ... Twice. No, but seriously. It's quite a walk, as you can see on the map above.

The quest starts by talking to the High Elf Soldier at Sloeford, and he will tell you to put a stop to the Brigands once and for all. Not really liking his idea, but tempted by Gold and treasure ... er, I mean noble causes, you decide to take it on anyway. Basically you have to reach the Brigand basecamp, and slay 15 Brigands, along with their captain.

Well, first off: Getting there. This is not only a long, but also a tricky part. Following the yellow markings on the map above, you need to make sure you stay LEFT of the treelines when you're almost there, otherwise you'll end up taking a huge detour.

When you get to the Brigands camp, you'll see that conveniently enough, there are exactly 15 Brigands and 1 captain present. Pull out your weapon, and start causing rampage. When all 15 Brigands, and their captain, are dead, you will have to walk back to the bridge, to collect your final reward with the High Elf Soldier in Sloeford and finish this Chain-quest.

Logbook Entry

Notes

• Note: MAJOR TIME SAVER

1. If you are playing single player => make sure you get the waypoint (the arch) and the monolith activated at Sloeford before you make your long journey north. After you finished the Brigands, press F12 to jump to your activated monolith. You just saved yourself the walk down
2. If you are playing Multiplayer, F12 will reset you to the starting isle. But still this saves time, since you can easily reach Sloeford from there, and save yourself a journey back from the brigand camp to sloeford.

• Note 2: The bandit captain is a tough nut to crack, with high defensive values. It's in your best interest to switch to a weapon with higher chance to hit (attack rating) and lower damage, since weapons with little or no attack bonus will hardly hit him at all.

Other then that his damage is nothing major, and he isn't quite the sprinter, more of a slow fellow.

• Important note: The bandit captain does not spawn until all 15 of his men/women have been killed.
• Tip: the quest The Kobold Chieftain is also in this area; you can save yourself some running if you do both quests at the same time
